i just *had* to see what all the hype was about w/this gloss. well, i must concur w/the masses - it's a real winner! very pretty, shimmery pinky-bronzy shade that would flatter most skin tones. has decent staying power for a gloss, and reapplies well. it does have a strawberry-like scent which doesnt bother me but is noticeable. my only gripe is that when you close the tube, the wand causes gloss to overflow and goop out of the sides. it got all over my makeup case! so now if i want to transport it (which i do everywhere) i have to put it in a ziploc. but it's a small price to pay for the results!
